Funny – at first I was not interested in learning this technique, but after reading some of the responses, I’ve come up with so many ways I could use this! Now I can’t wait to learn it! ~Gayle-T >> This comment was originally posted here: Graffiti Beads – Another Polymer Clay Tutorial Exclusive
This is my favorite video so far. I’ve been wondering how to do this ever since you first showed off your faux deep raku. Thanks for sharing your technique for getting those gorgeous deep crackles. ~Priscilla-L >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Faux Raku
I too had trouble with lentil beads until I saw Cindy’s video. It was like “dawn breaketh on marble head!” ~Kim-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Lentil Beads
Wow Cindy – they are beautiful! It’s great knowing you can make beautiful beads and designs from left overs. I’ve been saving my scrap clay and old canes for ages… just waiting for something to do with them :) Thank you Cindy. ~Rachel-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Jupiter Planet Beads
Hi, Cindy – Based on your video, I am now eagerly awaiting receipt of the Lortone 3a rock tumbler I just ordered on line. While I’m waiting, can you tell me where to get the river rocks you mentioned? Do you know if Michael’s sells them? Thanks >>> Oops! Sorry, I asked my question about river rocks without realizing that you had all made such helpful comments and answered my question (and more) already. Thanks ~Sherry-L >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Rock Tumbler
Hi Cindy, well once again you have out done yourself with the tutorial. I love the faux pebbles. Have wondered what the recipe was so was glad you featured this here. Thanks again. ~Adrienne-L >> This comment was originally posted here: Faux Pebble Beads
Absolutely fantastic, my mind is already working. ~Ken-H >> This comment was originally posted here: Alcohol Ink Effects on Crackled Gold Leaf Polymer Clay Tutorial
LOL!! This looks like fun! Back to storage for the tool collection. My Dad inherited his godmother’s home contents, and when I divorced, he set me up with an excellent tool collection – haven’t even explored it all yet but I recognize most of them in the video. Blessings to Uncle Mart! And you Cindy! ~Jocelyn-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Hammered Copper Findings
Hi Cindy, The texturizing with rubber stamps video was exactly what I was looking for. Great explanations and I loved the results. The columbine colours are gorgeous, too. My favourite lesson so far. Thanks so much. I can’t wait to try the technique :-) ~Sue-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Rubber Stamp Textured Beads and Pendants
Cindy what a nice technique much easier than mine I should add. Thank you so much for doing this video for us. I really enjoyed and learned a great deal from it. Hugs. ~Tannumoni-K >> This comment was originally posted here: Sculpted Flower Rose Beads
I have been using embossing powders in poly clay for a while, and I prefer the fine powder as opposed to the course blends. I really love the look in a translucent clay as the powder almost has a suspended look, great for duplicating a stone look such as granite, marble, etc. Thanks for the tutorial Cindy, as usual, you have sparked the creativity bug in me again, been a while since I have worked with my clay. This will certainly get me back to making some beads. ~Rob-K >> This comment was originally posted here: Anjou Pear Fruit Beads
What a great resource! I’ll have to check that out because I am often stimied as to what glue to use and reach for my glue gun (don’t worry not for clay – ok only on clay when I have a tight deadline and it is not going to be worn LOL). I love gorilla super glue, I have used it with polymer clay to metal AND to fix my food processor mixing bowl, talk about all purpose! Plus it has rubber particles in it so it will flex rather than get brittle like other super glue. Great article Cindy! ~Lindsay-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Jewelry Glue and Adhesives
I tried these today, and I love them! They are so fun, but so are all the Cindy Lietz techniques I’ve tried so far! ~Carrie-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Torn Paper Water Color Technique
WOW Cindy!! I have been waiting for this one and cannot wait to get started. My brain is on fire right now with the future possibilities of this technique. Thanks so much for sharing it with us! Pictures to come. This time I mean it. I get carried away and then go M.I.A. in my craft room and forget about my friends. Yes, guilty as charged. My punishment should be to get sent to my room. Okay, if I have to…. shucky-darn! See ya soon! ~Sherry-W >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Graffiti Beads
That’s great news for you Cindy, you must be thrilled. I’m very grateful to you for the teardrop blend and use it every time. ~Polyanya >> This comment was originally posted here: Flower Cane Polymer Clay Tutorial
Cindy – that’s a great tip about cutting both sides of the wire in the rings. I have that problem too and never thought of your technique! ~Silverleaf >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Jewelry Projects
Love your site! I have just started doing wiring — your articles have been very helpful! Thanks! ~Wendy-B >> This comment was originally posted here: Wirework Loops and Links
I’m about to purchase your Volume 12 videos to make some gold and silver leaf pendants with ink, love that technique. Thanks for getting me started. ~Mary-N >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Jewelry Tutorials
I love rolling things all into one… it’s fabulous!!! Love the rose brain cane and I am getting better at the mobius beads…. it’s a very cool bead it just takes a lot of practice!!! ~Melinda-H >> This comment was originally posted here: Rose Brain Cane Mobius Bead
Love the extruder flower cane technique and yes yes yes would love a video the sooner the better. I am trying to get a lot of beads made right now so the easier a method the better for me. This idea looks so promising. You amaze me more and more Cindy. Please try to fit this in soon. Beading away. ~Peggy-B >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Techniques
